⚠️ Special Notes & Quirks

⚠️ User-Agent Required: All GHL API requests require a User-Agent HTTP header. Requests without it may be rejected with a 403 error.

📌 POST for Search: Search endpoints use POST instead of GET because the search filters are complex JSON objects that can't be easily encoded in query parameters.

POST /contacts/upsert

Summary: Upsert Contact

Please find the list of acceptable values for the country field here

The Upsert API will adhere to the configuration defined under the “Allow Duplicate Contact” setting at the Location level. If the setting is configured to check both Email and Phone, the API will attempt to identify an existing contact based on the priority sequence specified in the setting, and will create or update the contact accordingly.

If two separate contacts already exist—one with the same email and another with the same phone—and an upsert request includes both the email and phone, the API will update the contact that matches the first field in the configured sequence, and ignore the second field to prevent duplication.

Scenario 1: If this value is true and the location allows duplicate contacts, a new contact will be created immediately without checking for duplicates. Scenario 2: If this value is true but the location does not allow duplicate contacts, this field is ignored and the normal upsert behavior applies: the API will search for an existing duplicate contact, update it if found, or create a new contact if not found. Scenario 3: If this value is false or not provided, the normal upsert behavior applies regardless of the location's duplicate contact setting.
